Chapter 10: Ancient Ruins
After Wu Haoran left, Zhuo Chuan and Tingting practiced hard, stepping up their speed to condense the laws of divine blood in their bodies, and the casting of spells became more and more proficient.
Half a month passed in a flash, and on this day, the animal husbandry returned from outside, and the two of them were taken away from the dense forest by Wu Haoran's order, and came to the halfway point of the Hanging Mirror Peak.
It's a secluded hill on top of a giant peak, teeming with lush vegetation and chirping birds.
The three of them moved on, and a moment later, a row of attics appeared before them, beautiful and graceful, perfect for retreat.
"Wow!"
Xiao Tingting's eyes lit up, and she ran into the small building quickly, looking around, and was very satisfied with this place.
Mu Ye and Zhuo Chuan also entered inside, raised their eyes to look in all directions, and said with some envy: "This is the residence of the peak master when he was young, and it was left to you." ”
He sighed that the terrain of this place is too good, not to mention the abundant aura, and on the night of the full moon, you can also look at the Void Hanging Mirror from afar, which is of great help to cultivation.
"Many monks from Hanging Mirror Peak want to come here, but no one dares to offend the peak master. The animal husbandry talked to them, saying that he also wanted to live, "The attic has been silent for a long time, and now it is finally your ...... again."
After sending Zhuo Chuan and the others here and telling them some precautions, the animal husbandry left.
Zhuo Chuan originally wanted to keep it, but as the other party's eldest disciple of Elder Jinyang, there were not many things, and he often needed to go out.
"Come back when I get back. ”
In the time that followed, Zhuo Chuan and Tingting meditated here, and their realm was improving every day, and the progress was gratifying.
Moreover, Wu Haoran also took the time to come to the attic in person from time to time to supervise their cultivation and sternly warn them not to be lazy.
The time of the Three Immortals Meeting was finally decided, just half a year later.
Ziyang, Lingyan and the three major caves of Cangyue rushed to the ancient ruins together, allowing the divine blood cultivators of various sects to enter and seek opportunities.
"Tingting is too young, so it's better not to go. ”
Wu Haoran advised her to give up this Three Immortals Meeting, because there were many dangers hidden in the ruins, and Xiao Tingting was not very old, so it was best to stay in Ziyang to cultivate.
"The Ancient Ruins are rumored to be a powerful dojo in ancient times, and the Divine Blood Training Area is only a small part of it. He revealed to Zhuo Chuan the secret of the place where the Three Immortals Society was held.
From Wu Haoran's narration, Zhuo Chuan learned a lot of secrets unknown to the outside world.
For example, Cangyue in the Three Caves has a lot of connections there, and the rise of the sect is created by ancient ruins.
A long time ago, a monk brought out the inheritance scriptures from it, and cultivated it to a thousand miles in one step, overshadowing all the peers of the Three Immortal Mountains, and for a time there was an invincible posture.
Subsequently, he created and established his own sect, which is now Cangyue Cave Heaven!
"Be careful, don't go out of the Divine Blood Training Area, the outside area has not been investigated by the various sects, it is very dangerous. ”
Wu Haoran mentioned the pattern of the ancient ruins and told them that in addition to the territory controlled by the Three Cave Heavens, a large part of the range belonged to the people of the demon clan.
"There has been a lot of friction between the Three Immortal Mountains and the Demon Clan in recent years, and if a monk inadvertently intrudes into their territory, it is very likely that there will be no bones left. ”
In the next half a year, Wu Haoran carefully taught the two, imparting monastic experience, perception, and so on.
"Master, I want to go to ...... too"
Even Xiao Tingting was full of interest in the Three Immortals Society, but she was still rejected by Wu Haoran on the grounds that she was too young.
He was also helpless, when the grand event opened, it was too dangerous for Tingting to enter as a little girl who was not even thirteen years old.
Then, he took out an elixir collection book and let Zhuo Chuan memorize it, which was very helpful for his subsequent experience.
"Every time the Ancient Ruins of the Three Immortals Guild are newly opened, there are spiritual herbs and medicinal herbs everywhere, and there may also be ancient tombs and other ......."
The sun rises and sets, the moon rotates, day and night alternate, and time passes inadvertently.
The half-year period is quietly coming, the Three Immortals will be held soon, and Zhuo Chuan has been constantly adjusting his state in the past few days to maintain his peak.
In this short period of time, he has been to the Enlightenment Cliff to practice, to the martial arts arena to learn from his peers, and with the identity of Wu Haoran's disciple, he has also read the classics in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.
"I've been practicing since I came to Ziyang Cave Heaven, and I haven't been able to know a few ...... my fellow disciples except for the priest brother."
Zhuo Chuan said goodbye to Tingting, walked out of the attic, and went straight to the foot of Hanging Mirror Peak.
Hanging Mirror Peak is the closest to the ancient ruins, so the monks who participated in the Three Immortals Guild in Ziyang will come here to assemble, and then be led by an elder and rush straight to their destination.
"Brother, when you come back, you want to tell me in detail about the ruins!" Tingting's petite body leaned against the door, very envious that Zhuo Chuan could go to the Three Immortals Society.
"Damn master, you don't want me to go, hum!" she muttered to herself complainingly, drawing a big cross in her heart.
"Tingting, take care!"
Zhuo Chuan descended the mountain and hurried to the meeting place.
There was a lot of people here, he didn't come late, but it wasn't early, there were already people standing around, all of them were monks of the Divine Blood Realm.
As far as the eye can see, eighty percent of the large group of people are young monks, and the rest are young people.
"Look at it like this, there should be seventy or eighty people......
Zhuo Chuan walked into the crowd, because he didn't often go out to talk to people, so most of the monks around him were unfamiliar with him, and they didn't know that this was the disciple of the peak master.
Soon, after the monks in the purple sun were almost all here, the foot of the Hanging Mirror Peak was boiling, and people who were familiar with each other were talking to each other, and only a small number of monks were like Zhuo Chuan, waiting quietly in the crowd alone.
After a short time, the crowd suddenly quieted down, and when Zhuo Chuan looked out suspiciously, he happened to see a white-clothed old Taoist coming in the wind.
"Daoist Jinyang!"
This old Taoist Zhuo Chuan has seen it, and he is no stranger to it, it is the master of animal husbandry, one of the eight elders of Hanging Mirror Peak, Jinyang Dao Chief.
"I led the team in this Three Immortals Meeting. ”
Elder Jin Yang stood above the void, his hands behind his back, and a pair of deep eyes swept over everyone.
When he saw Zhuo Chuan, his gaze softened slightly, and he nodded lightly at him without a trace.
Zhuo Chuan was not surprised, and responded respectfully.
Because, Wu Haoran has always been good friends with Jinyang and is like a brother, otherwise the animal husbandry would not often run to the peak.
"After twenty years, the Three Immortals Festival is coming again, and the ancient ruins are once again ......"
Daoist Jinyang said slowly, reminding and warning everyone that this is not only a chance, but also a cruel experience outside the sect, and if you are careless, you are likely to lose your life.
"This is not alarmist, there are many people who die in every Three Immortals Society. "Elder Jinyang is very majestic, and his voice is as deafening as Hong Zhong Dalu.
"Thirty percent of you will probably never come back. ”
As soon as such words came out, everyone was immediately shocked!
They never thought that the mortality rate would be so high, and they thought that at most two or three people would die at a grand event.
"Let's go, let's go!"
With a wave of his sleeves, everyone finally began to act, hurrying towards the ancient ruins.
The distance to the destination is not short, and some people expect that with the normal speed of everyone, it should be three days before they arrive at the venue.
Along the way, they crossed the mountains and mountains, and did not prepare carriages or other means of transportation, all on foot, after all, all of them were monks, and their physical fitness was not comparable to ordinary people.
When the third day came, everyone finally saw the ancient ruins in the distance.
This is an ancient and dilapidated dojo hidden in the barren mountains and mountains, and the scope is so wide that you can't see the edge at a glance.
Rows of collapsed palaces and pavilions are hidden among the mountains, and broken ancient monuments and decayed wood carvings are scattered scattered, making it a veritable land of ruins.
"It's here!"
Before they came to the ancient ruins, they found that a group of monks had already arrived here, all of whom were also young people in the Divine Blood Realm, led by an old woman, and occupied a small hill.
"That's the person from Lingyan Cave, and the old woman who leads the team should be Ying Ran Shitai......"
Someone whispered and conversed, recognizing the other's origin.
